A:AnswerThe Mac Operating System uses a different file format system than Windows does. This drive comes formatted for Windows.
Thanks to the Time Machine backup program being built into your MacBook, when you connect this drive to your MacBook, after a moment, it will ask you if you want to use this drive with Time Machine. Just select Yes, and your MacBook will take care of formatting the drive for you. Just acknowledge the message that it will erase all data on the drive (there is nothing on the drive when you first buy it anyway, except a couple basic utilities which are not needed), and then your computer does the rest for you.
A:AnswerIf you're asking whether it uses an AC plug/batteries, then no, just the USB cable. However, the USB cable needs to be connected to a device powerful enough to spin the fan. I tried connecting it to my phone with a dongle (it works on flashdrives), but my phone wasn't powerful enough to spin the fan so it couldn't connect. Other average devices (ie. laptops) will power it just fine.
A:AnswerYes you can. When you plug it into the Xbox One, you will be prompted to format it for your XBox One. Then you can copy your games to it.
Hope this helps.
A:AnswerYes. Using Windows Backup it created system image the first time I backed it up. It took the drive some time to do create image (about an hour). I scheduled regular backups daily overnight. They don't take as long. It updates system image and files as they are changed. As disk gets full Windows will delete old images.
A:AnswerYes, for the Playstation or Pc. You can chose external hard drive as default storage. You can even transfer games stored on your PS4 to the hard drive in memory options to save space on your ps4. Hope this helps.
A:AnswerIf using a mac specific file format like HFS+ then no, it will not be readable by Windows.
However you can format the drive using exFAT which will be compatible with both.
A:AnswerDo not clone your system disk to a USB-drive, Windows cannot boot from a USB-drive.
The cloning should be done from Acronis Bootable Media (created on CD/DVD or Flash). When cloning from Acronis Bootable Media, you do not need to have an operating system or an Acronis product installed on the new drive. You do not even need to have the new drive formatted to do the cloning. For information on Acronis Bootable Media see Acronis bootable media: https://kb.acronis.com/content/1537
Even when you start cloning in Windows, the computer will reboot into the Linux environment the same as when booting from the rescue media. Because of this, it is better to clone under rescue media. For example, there may be a case when your hard disk drives are detected in Windows and not detected in Linux. If this is the case, the cloning operation will fail after reboot. When booting from the rescue media, you can make sure that Acronis True Image detects both the source and target disks before starting the cloning operation. Cloning of both desktop and laptop hard disks is supported.
A:AnswerYes, I'm using one for my Xbox 1 X.It works fine. But I'm using the 4Tb model, which, for the Xbox One X, would be a wise decision. I've already filled the internal drive and about 300Gig of the external drive already and I've only had the Xbox One X since it was released. Go for a 4Tb for your Xbox!
